Classical Ballet Beginner

Classical Ballet Beginner

Classical ballet is the “queen of dances.” When it first emerged, it  was the sole privilege of the royal family to practise ballet. It is  characterized by elegance, ethereal motion and hard work. It develops  special muscles, employs the stretching techniques of yoga, and develops  coordination to an exceptional extent. Through a system of techniques, I help you to get  closer to yourself.

We practise perseverance, concentration,  self-discipline approached through the body, as well as body awareness.  While in ballet the form is significant, it is only of secondary  importance in my classes. What really matters is what is happening  within you. In classical ballet, there is a fixed order and system of  ballet movements, which anyone can learn. The best part of this form of  dance is that we reach to the sky , going higher and higher to achieve our dreams.

Classical ballet for beginners. We suggest this cours for all those practioner who have had attend a ballet class before or/and took our Online Ballet Basics cours!
It is important because there are details, principal what we are not explaning in the beginner course.

This course is more then 75 min and most of the time we only demostrate the excercises to one side. Please do all excercises to both sides: right (when your left hend is on the barre, and your „working sde” is your riht side, which is away from the barre), and left (when your right hend is on the barre, and your „working side” is your left side.)

What the course includes:

• basic excersises at the barre- in the correct order, basic preparation excercises at the center, 1 small jump and 2 different diadonal turn preparation.

• At all excercises we demonstrate the common mistakes and we show the correct way of performing the excercises
